You get what you pay for.
There is a reason why this is the cheapest lawyer in Houston. Because Darla McBride is barely a lawyer. If she in your only option, I recommend representing yourself instead. In a shear and a half I could only get in contact with her twice. And on the most important and (what should have been) final ...
I understand your concerns and I want you to know that I’ve made every effort to keep you informed and supported throughout your case. I attended all major court dates and represented you at each critical stage, except when I was required elsewhere by the Court. Detailed list of appearances: 11/1/24, 12/12/24, 1/22/25, 2/26/25, 4/3/25, 5/6/25, 5/19/25, 5/20/25, 5/21/25, and 2/3/26. When I was in a jury trial in another Court on 2/2/26, I made sure to speak with you as soon as I was available. My highly trained criminal law legal assistant was always ready to help answer questions in my absence. Regarding the PTI violations, the Court noted these as part of your actions, and I did my best to support you through those challenges. The Judge’s comments about breaking his “rule” again for me were in reference to a situation where my client was not present. The Judge made it very clear that I was there. Yet he still broke his “rule” for me then and in your case. My priority has always been to advocate for your best interests, and I appreciate the opportunity to work with you through this process. I care deeply about my clients and strive to ensure the best possible outcomes for them. While I wish this case could have resulted in a dismissal, as I had planned for you (to follow straightforward conditions), I sincerely wish you the best moving forward.

Excellent services
I couldn’t be happier with the outcome from my case. Hired McBride for an assault charge and she was able to get the case dismissed. Hopefully I never have to call but will use McBride law again if I have to, thank y’all so much

Attorney McBride is definitely worth the money!
I hired Mrs. McBride to handle my DWI case. Her assistant helped me understand what I was facing and how to keep my license from being suspended. Mrs. McBride did an amazing job in the courtroom and kept me out of jail. She helped me so much and I appreciate her a lot. She is well worth the price I p...
